Atletico Madrid have asked several first-team players to accept salary reductions to help reduce their wage bill, according to multiple reports.
Due to the Spanish side’s financial issues, they have made contact with Lemar, Oblak, Koke, Antoine Griezmann and Joao Felix to explain the need to adjust their salaries.
Lemar and Oblak have made concessions already, and talks with the others have been positive in tone.
The France international has committed to 2027 with a 40 percent reduction in salary, while Oblak, the highest-paid player, will sign on to 2028 with a big pay cut as well as deferred payments.
